Chairman Thomas H. Carter has issued the call for the meeting of the Republican national committee at the Arlington Hotel, Washington, D. C., Dec. 10th to select the time and place for the next national republican convention. - ° The Indianapolis Journal hits the nail square on the head when it says: “Republican national administrations met the obligations of the government from moneys in the treasury, while the present one meets them by selling bonds.” . The country would be sorry to have another season of tariff agitation; and yet, as Governor Hastings observes, the tariff question cannot be considered settled when the existing policy is .running the government into debt at the rate of $50,000,000 a year. It is necessary to have an income equal to the outgo, even if a little tariff tinkering has to be done in order to accomplish such a result. —St Louis Globe-Democrat ° ,| ~

When it is remembered that during the preceding year under the McKinley tariff the exports amounted to $192,004,768 more than imports, some idea of the great damage to the industries of the United States can be obtained. The balance this year in favor of the foreigner added to the balance last year in favor of the house producer makes a total of nearly $220,000,000 that the home industries have been damaged by the nefarious law. This is the way the markets of the world have been captured. The first order made by Mayor Taggart, of Indianapolis—thedemocrats eiected last week by a plurality of 3,700 votes in the city that two years ago gave Mr. Danny a republican for the same office 2,700 majority—was that “all laws should be enforced and all violators arrested.” That don’t quite jibe with republican ante-election assertions that if Taggart were elected Indianapolis would be a “wide-open” town. —Valparaiso Messenger. ■ But Taggart’s order for the en forcement of the law, are probably like those made by the notoriously corrupt Hopkins, of Chicago, made only for effect, and not intended nor expected,to be enforced. At any event, Indianapolis is now largely on the “wide-open” order and getting worse every day. It may be that Taggart means fairly well himself, but even if he does, the gang that surrounds him is too strong to be controlled.

Our September Trade.

[American Economist.] \ The Bureau of Statistics of'the Treasury department supplies some interesting facts as to our foreign trade of last month. Our exports of domestic products and manufacturers were $753,399 less than in September, 1894. This indicates how we are capturing the markets of the world. But the manner in which the markets of the world are capturing us is a caution. Last month we bought from foreign countries to the extent of $14,588,425 more than in September, 1894. This makes the total of last month’s trade upwards of $15,300,000 against us as compared with a year ; ago. Our purchases of dutiable goods were $12,241,094 larger than in September, last year, thus showing in a remarkable manner how a Free Trade tariff lessens the “burden of taxation" upon “the plain people” by increasing the proportion of articles they use, upon which they must pay the Free Trade “tariff tax."

The Times-Herald’s Egyptian

cartoon of last Monday, represents the method of settling boundary disputes in ancient Egypt One Egyptian, looking very much like our Uncle Sam, is kicking another ancient Egyptian, bearing a strong family resemblance to John Bull, off the disputed territory, much to the evident disrelish of John, and greatly to the equally evident satisfaction of the Frenchman, Russian, German and other national!* ties looking on. A fierce and warlike American eagle savagely pulls the Jail of a British lion, who is howling in pain and trying to get away. It is. a very amusing cartoon, and would be gratifying to our national pride, except for the fact that Uncle Sam has had neither spirit nor disposition to kick anyone but himself since the present administration went into power.

Summing up and commenting upon the various and conflicting decisions of circuit judges upon the Nicholson law, the Fowler Republican Era has this to say of Judge Wiley’s decision in the Strickfaden case: Judge Wiley, at Rensselaer, decides, that, under section 9, remonstrators against an applicant cannot withdraw their names’ from the remonstrance unless they do so before the remonstrance is filed with the County Auditor. Judge Wiley’s decision is certainly good law, but he was most erroneously reported in the papers. Certainly a remonstrator would be permitted to take his name from the remonstrance at any time before the paper was filed, bufwEeii filed it should stand as a finished document. But the whole intent of the law would be nullified and the law turned into a plaything if signers cJald withdraw at any time before ’Hie commissioners had made a finding. The Republican Era is certainly in error as to the tenor of Judge Wiley’s decision; which was that the remonstrators had the right to withdraw at any time, before the commissioners had acted upon the remonstrance. The remark of the Era that the remonstrance, when filed, should stand as a finished document, while it looks like good sense and good justice, is not good law, according to the decision of Judge Wiley and large numbers of other circuit judges.

Gorman Tariff Results.

The direct cause of the fall in prices of farm productions the past three years is traceable directly to the virtual indorsement of FreeTrade in the election of 1892, and the partial carrying ’out of the doctrine in the passage of the WilsonGorman Tariff bill by the last Congress. The political catastrophe closed down or partly closed down thousands of manufactories all over the country, and threw out of employment a million of workers. It did more —it opened the gates for the admitting of all kinds of farm produce into the United States to compete with the producers of this country. It destroyed in a measure the home market, the greatest and best in the world, not only to the farmer, but also to the manufacturer and producer, by putting them in competition with the cheap labor of foreign countries.

* Take, as an example, wool. Tha; has fallen 50 per cent in price anc to such a figure as to destroy al profit in wool raising, and sent millions of sheep to the slaughter house to bejconverted into mutton. Did the farmers and nanufacturers have the home market it would be all they could ask. But when that market is given up to foreign competition with foreign cheap labor, the producers of this country suffer.

It is well understood that the best market for all the products of the farmer is the manufacturing centers; increase these, and the markets of farmer are increased; decrease them, and the farmer must look abroad for a market, with its extra cost and lower prices.

The lecture given at Qthe court house, Saturday, the 23rd, by Professor Bitting, of Pardue university, on the subject of Hog Cholera and Sevine Plague was certainly very interesting as well as profitable and those who failed to hear him were the loosen. While he says that as yet there is no certain cure for either of these diseases he gave a receipt for a preventative. This medicine no doubt is perfectly safe whether given to healthy or unhealthy bogs and as a preventative is the best that has been discovered. The following is the receipt: Pulverized wood char coal, 1 lb. Sodium chloride 2 lb. Sodium bicarbonate 2 lb. Sodium hyposulphide 2 lb. Sulphur 1 lb. Sodium Sulphate 1 lb. Black antimony 1 lb. Mix and give one table spoon full once a day in slops or feed.
